How to Edit the Home Page
- Open the CMS at
/admin/ - Click Pages → Home Page
- Expand the section you want to edit
- Update the fields
- Click Save
Best Practices
- Hero headline — keep it short, 3 lines max
- Hero image — use AVIF or WebP, under 200 KB
- Trusted logos — use real names, not placeholders
- Stats — use real numbers when possible
- Testimonial — always get permission before publishing client details
Troubleshooting
Hero image does not appear
- Check that the file exists in
static/img/ - Confirm the URL starts with
/img/ - Refresh with
Ctrl + Shift + R
Intro Grid 2 is empty
Open intro_grid2.list — at least one item is required for the grid to render.
Stats numbers do not display
Check that each stat has Count filled in (e.g., 14+).
Testimonial quote overflows
Shorten testimonial.title2 — the layout is designed for 1–2 lines.
Journal or Projects link broken
Confirm the URL in journal.url or projects.url matches a real page.
